"W-what kind of witchcraft is this? Such a piece of rotten wood can actually change the seasons!" Yao Yao's expression changed, his brows furrowed slightly, and he was amazed.
"No, this is not a witchcraft!" Han Changmu repeated in a low voice: "It's not a witchcraft, there's something wrong with the water."
"Is there a problem with the water?" Yao Yao squatted down and did not reach out to touch the dangerous and unknown water surface. He pulled out the silver hairpin from his hair with his backhand, and lightly stroked it on the water, causing a shallow ripple.
The colorless and transparent water droplets swayed gently twice, dripping from the tip of the hairpin to the ground. Just listen
With a "stab" sound, a puff of white smoke suddenly rose from the ground, and the smoke was actually filled with the pungent smell of blood.
When the white smoke dissipated, a sunken hole as big as a finger was burned on the ground. Most of the silver hairpin tip was corroded away.
Yao Yao's mouth twitched when she saw it, and she hurriedly threw away the silver hairpin whose true identity was no longer visible, and shouted in fear: "Is this water? This is obviously sulfuric acid!" She was frightened, but fortunately she was alert and cautious. Otherwise, she would be the one being disfigured now!
When Han Changmu saw this scene, he was stunned and speechless, and felt a strong sense of ominousness in his heart. This water was able to corrode the silver hairpin, but the water channel was made of unknown materials. In such a corrosive water flow, there was no damage at all.
The water in the ditch flows, rolls, and rises silently. It seems harmless to humans and animals, but it contains a huge power that can destroy the world and make people shudder out of thin air.
"No, the water flow must stop as soon as possible!" Han Changmu suddenly said sternly, walking quickly to the stone wall, his eyes flickering, staring at the countless small holes in the wall where water came out.
As if he was provoking Han Changmu's words, the gurgling water suddenly became crazy, roaring throughout the underground cave, and the faint and low music just now became clearly audible.
The music of the bells and chimes played hundreds of times in the cave. Sometimes the sound of the music flowed with spring and bright scenery, and sometimes it was frozen for thousands of miles, as if it had entered the cold winter overnight.
Han Changmu's eyebrows jumped, and he listened with a solemn expression. While listening, he looked at the place where the dead wood flowed.
"No, this music is wrong." Han Changmu muttered.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the music?" Yao Yao's face was full of confusion: "Is it out of tune?" Han Changmu glanced at the ditch, the dead trees flowing with the water, the scenery above had changed, green leaves were green, The bright red flowers bloom strongly among the branches and leaves, which is a beautiful scene in summer.
"The ancient music corresponds to the twelve rhythms of December. The first rhythm of the twelve rhythms, the yellow bell, corresponds to December. Listen, the current music corresponds to winter, but the dead trees are green and red. Flowers are blooming, it is precisely because this music is five tunes higher than ancient music that winter brings summer and spring brings autumn, which disrupts the solar terms like now." Han Changmu talked eloquently.
Just as he was speaking, the joy of the bell and chime changed. The red flowers on the dead trees withered, the green leaves turned yellow, and it looked desolate.
Yao Yao felt dizzy after hearing this, and asked in confusion: "Sir, I don't understand, this music is out of tune, what does it have to do with the water flow?" Han Changmu pointed to the dead trees that changed the scenery, and thought: "What if What I expected is correct. There is nothing wrong with the water. The problem is the music of the bell. If the music can be made to comply with ancient laws, the water flow may be able to stop." After saying that, he walked to the chime and stretched out his hand. Knocked twice.
The music was out of tune, but the dull bells circled low, the water flow suddenly stagnated, and the flow of the dead wood stopped for a short moment.
Yao Yao's expression changed: "Your Majesty is right, the key point is indeed in this chime!" Han Changmu glanced at Yao Yao, half-smiled and said: "Since the key point is in the chime, then you should listen carefully. Listening to this music, the tune was calibrated with this chime. Yao Yao was stunned when he heard it, waved his hands and wailed: "Calibrate the tune! Sir, are you crazy? For letting a person from humble position who can sing to death do such a thing, is it because you don’t want to live anymore, or because you don’t want humble job to live anymore! "
"..." Han Changmu was speechless and glanced at Yao Yao: "If you don't go, can you let me go?"
"..." Yao Yao stared at the chime fiercely, grinding his teeth. Chimes can't hit her to death, singing can't scare her to death, but a senior official can crush her to death!
"Ten taels of gold!" After a moment of silence, Han Changmu stared at Yao Yao, who was full of anger and dared not speak out, and suddenly said with a smile but not a smile: "You have calibrated the tune, and I will reward you with ten taels of gold. How about it?" "
"Okay!" Hearing Jin Zi, Yao Yao's mood instantly improved, and he responded without thinking: "Bizhi thinks I can give it a try, oh no, I can definitely calibrate the music." Han Changmu raised his eyebrows and slowly revealed With a smile of success, he turned around, stared at the slowly flowing water, and began to think.
In the main hall where the banquet was given, there was the sound of silk and bamboo, and the lights were bright. The swaying firelight reflected on the cups, reflecting the strange colors.
It's a bit cooler on Yuhua Mountain than at the bottom, especially after nightfall, when the cool mountain breeze blows into the palace, and the blue bricks on the ground are actually covered with a layer of sparkling water.
A small crack appeared on the blue brick of the palace door, winding silently to the center of the hall.
Tiny cracks instantly covered all the green bricks in the palace with the force of a prairie fire. Widows of faint red light immediately emanated from the cracks, flowing and connecting together, as if a thin layer of red mist was spread on the ground.
It was a busy time in the palace, and no one noticed the subtle changes in the blue bricks. Emperor Yong'an held the cup. He knew early on that Lu Zhaoyi was pregnant with a princess. Although her disappearance did not affect his mood at all, it could become a touchstone for him to identify courtiers.
He squinted his eyes and looked deeply at the courtiers who were drinking and drinking among each other in the palace. These people look respectful and humble, but inside they don’t know how many evil intentions they harbor and how many evil intentions each of them harbors.
Each of these people seems to be upright and honest, with no selfish motives at all, but in private, each one of them has his own head and his own affairs.
Otherwise, there are so many people on Yuhua Mountain, why is it that no one else is missing, but the pregnant Lu Zhaoyi is missing!
If it weren’t for the following people secretly adding fuel to the flames, I wouldn’t even believe it! As for the fact that Lu Zhaoyi was pregnant with a princess, he had always ordered it to be deliberately concealed, and it was always spread that Lu Zhaoyi was pregnant with a prince.
As a result, in the past few months, there have been countless overt and covert attacks. I don’t know how many people have become red-eyed and crazy about killing!
Emperor Yong'an's eyes became darker and darker, and his face gradually became gloomy. The atmosphere in the hall also became stagnant and cold for a moment.
All the courtiers who can sit here are all historians whose bones have been burned to ashes.
Even if his face remains calm, there is already a hundred and eighty dramas going on in his heart. These people were keenly aware that there was something wrong with Emperor Yong'an's expression. They all held their breaths, looked around calmly, and finally lowered their eyes in silence.
Emperor Yong'an withdrew his scrutinizing gaze, held the cup, and said calmly: "Why did you all stop? Is it because the food and wine are not to your taste? It seems that all the imperial chefs should be pushed out and chopped!" As soon as he said this, Everyone's expressions changed quickly, and after a moment of silence, they all smiled coquettishly.
Although Jun Wu was joking, no matter how cruel and cruel Emperor Yong'an was, he would never take his anger out on the cook casually.
Emperor Yong'an often said with a smile that there are three things in the world that cannot be offended. One is the scholar's mouth; the other is the cook's spoon; the third is the doctor's plum blossom needle.
That's all. As he gets older, he just wants to eat something smooth. He offends the cook and can't stand if there's half a spoonful of salt in each dish.
Emperor Yong'an glanced at the hall lightly. Under the flickering lights, everyone's face was gloomy and their expressions were awkward and complicated.
He suddenly felt bored and suddenly sneered coldly. He looked around the crowd coldly and was about to speak. Suddenly his cheeks twitched uncontrollably twice and the sound coming out of his mouth was so weird that he couldn't even form a complete sentence. words.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Gao Fuguo's voice became sharp and sharp. He reacted very quickly and shouted in a panic: "There is an assassin, catch the assassin!! Yulin Guard! Where is the Yulin Guard!!" He While shouting sternly, he reached out to help Emperor Yong'an, his voice was hoarse.
But who would have expected that as soon as he moved his fingers, a numbness jumped out from the soles of his feet and swept through his whole body with lightning speed.
Gao Fuguo's whole body froze, his legs were firmly nailed to the ground, making it difficult to move even half a step. He turned around in shock, looking at the palace in shock but with a bit of numbness.
The hall also became chaotic in an instant. The hall was noisy, with calls for help and screams coming one after another. It was not known who was frightened and crying. The undisguised sobs were particularly harsh and made people anxious.
It turned out that while Emperor Yong'an was speechless, everyone also found that their bodies were imprisoned by an invisible force.
No matter how much I screamed and struggled, it was difficult to leave my seat.
"Gao Fuguo! Gao Fuguo! What's going on!?" Emperor Yong'an could finally make a normal voice. He just breathed a sigh of relief, but he was shocked to find that he couldn't move again.
Gao Fuguo was sweating profusely and his voice changed:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I'm here, Yulin Guards, help me, come here quickly, escort me!! Help me!!" The lantern outside the palace door went out at some point, and the dark night was as quiet as a dead place. , as Gao Fuguo's voice came out in a hurry, no one came out to escort him.
Gao Fuguo felt flustered and glanced at Emperor Yong'an in panic. Emperor Yong'an's heart suddenly sank, and he felt an inexplicable sense of ominousness.
At this moment,
With a "squeak" sound, the palace door closed with a heavy sound.
There was a loud "bang" sound.
